    Best practice is to read the instructions that come with both the HMC upgrade and the pSeries firmware. Ignoring the instructions, may, one day, bite you big time.

    Typically, I'd suggest you'll find, upgrading the HMC first is the more appropriate sequence...... but read the instructions. You never know when you'll find an exception.

    I have always followed this order

    1. HMC Upgrade
    2. MS Firmware Upgrade
    3. VIO Upgrade
    4. TL Upgrade

    But as The_Doctor said, read the instructions!
